From Dex to TCGHeart

Using Dex to track your Pokémon collection and want European prices, a scanner and shareable binders? Your export comes with you.

Your export is recognised

Export your collection from Dex and drop the file into the import. The format is detected automatically; you do not have to map columns.

A Dex export stores the card number in a combined field and uses UTF-16 character encoding. TCGHeart's import reads both, so you do not have to open the file in Excel first.

Honest about what does not match

Every row gets a status. What certainly matches is imported. What probably matches is shown to you first with a proposal, and what cannot be found stays marked as not found.

You can pick a card per row yourself, even when the suggestion is off. So you decide which set a card came from, not the matcher.

What you gain

Prices in euros per country and per condition, a camera scanner that also reads whole binder pages, digital binders with a share link, three levels of set completion and a Living Dex.

And if you run a stall at fairs: shared stock, a point of sale and a VAT report.

Note: Dex is a trademark of its owner. TCGHeart is not affiliated with them and there is no partnership between us. This page describes what TCGHeart's import does and does not assess any other app; formats and features change, so check for yourself what currently applies.

Frequently asked questions

Can I import my Dex collection into TCGHeart?

Yes. Export your collection from Dex and pick the file in the import. The format is recognised and every row is matched to the right card in the right set. Importing is part of Pro.

Do I have to edit the export file first?

No. The unusual character encoding and the combined card-number field are handled as they are.

Is the price from my export used as my purchase price?

No. That column is current market value, not what you paid. Taking it as a purchase price would make your return meaningless, so it is deliberately ignored.

What happens to cards that are not found?

They are not quietly attached to some other card. You see them with suggestions and can choose per row, or skip them.
